^^Europe, Anno Domini 955.
^
^^The powerful empire of Charlemange has split long ago, and its 
^^successors are only weak, threatened structures. 
^
^^While the Franconian empire as well as England still suffers heavily 
^^from Viking raids, Germany trembles from continuing Hungarian invasions.
^
^^In the East Byzantium, successor of Rome, is at the zenith of its power.
^^But, bitter wars and long battles loom behind the horizon, especially 
^^with the islamic Arabs, which, since the death of Mohammed in 632, have 
^^subdued almost the entire Middle East in an unbelievable trail of Conquest 
^^including North-Africa and the Iberian Peninsula.
^
^^The European kings must now secure their own power and get ready 
^^for the struggle between Christianity and Islam...
^
^^RECOMMENDED: Germans, Franks or English
